I suggest to use { /usr/bin/ksh93, /usr/xpg4/bin/sh and finally
/usr/bin/ksh } (in that order) since /usr/bin/sh is the old Bourne shell
for all Solaris releases before OpenSolaris/2008.05 (which switched to
ksh93 for /usr/bin/sh&co.) and /usr/bin/ksh93 is only available on newer
Solaris/OpenSolaris releases. /usr/xpg4/bin/sh is guranteed to be a
fully POSIX conformant shell (on Solaris 8-10 it's based on ksh88,
starting with Solaris 11 it will be linked to ksh93 since ksh93 is
assumed to be fully POSIX conformant by default) but may not be
available on very old Solaris releases (e.g. Solaris < 2.6).

The problem is that Solaris's old /usr/bin/sh is really the old Bourne
shell and not "bash" - which means even basic POSIX shell functionality
like $(...) is not available and stuff like IFS field splitting won't
work reliable.
